It is appropriate to ask what types of academic support services are available to student-athletes at prospective colleges and universities. BlueSpark recommends inquiring about mandatory tutoring, academic advisement specific to the athletic department, and mandatory study hall. If your student has an IEP in high school, this will not carry over to the university setting, but can be used to help secure accommodations at the universities Disability Office. Some typical accommodations that student-athletes with a documented learning disability could receive include a note-taker, testing in the Disability Office, and additional academic advisement.
